“[Georgea]’s Toronto’s sweetheart in the way that Meg Ryan was everyone’s sweetheart for 15 years”- Catherine McCormick

Georgea Brooks-Hancock is a stand up comic, living between Toronto and Los Angeles. She started her comedy career in 2006 through improvisation. After dabbling in sketch she slowly dug her way into the stand up scene and has never (well rarely) looked back.

Georgea has a vast amount of training. She begun her learning through The Canadian Improv Games. She then moved to Toronto and developed her style with the Impatient Theatre Company (where she later became a teacher). In the summer of ’09 Georgea moved to Chicago where she immersed herself in the teachings of improvOlymic theatre. In terms of stand up Georgea was taught by Dawn Whitwell, a Toronto comic is dedicated to supporting females in comedy.
